I thought we were garbage but took the goals well. Sail kept us in the game again with some great saves.
Key thing is: if you can win playing garbage away*, you are a good team!
*Every Nix game is an away game, we've had more then any other team on Earth over the last 3 years I'd say. We shouldn't have issues travelling to Australia now when things return to normal.

Being based in Aus sucks. But playing “Away” games in NSW when you are based there is very very different to travelling over from NZ. No airport queues, no 3.5 hour flights, no taxis to your hotel, no checking in, no unpacking your bag, no Covid tests, no filling in forms etc etc. All that tedious travel stuff that becomes a chore, if you fly alot.
Last time Nix played outside of NSW in A League was 1st Jan. Also the last time they lost an ALM game. So they have had over 2 months now of short trips, sleeping in the same bed every night. Surely has been a factor in this run.
